A blank page. Fascinating.

Must have taken every braincell you have a couple of hours overtime to come up with that.

When you get the link working, have a gander at the detail. I appreciate that you think a \"nuance\" is West Country paedophile but just look at the detail.

The IMF is an old unreconstituted monetarist organisation that sees balanced budgets and reduced tax as ends in themselves. They are deeply, deeply right wing in their approach to economics. And even they say that there are \"significant downside risks which could result in a further sharp contraction\" in the coalition's policy. Translated, that means that there us a significant risk of a double dip recession being generated by the cuts.

Strangely enough I largely agree with you on this one, it's far too early to make such predictions.

The IMF is a bosses organisation so has a vested interest in supporting the coalition.However, it will not impede the mighty rovers from reaching the playoffs and a general socialist insurrection of society.
